And, you could print out the interps, and the clarification and keep them tucked neatly inside your rules book.

Of course I could. But that would only work if I even wanted a coach in my locker room after any game to discuss any situation during a game. I do not know about you, but even with the best intentions I would rather pass based on how well that has worked in the past.
Better yet, you will hear about a coach that will make a big issue over a call that does not go their way. And I will bet that some assignor, somewhere will get a call or a letter about "how this official does not know the rule," and will reference the NF 2003-2004 Rulebook. If it happen to me over a rule that a coach did not understand what he wrote, it will happen on this situation.
